EDI GENRAL Segments and Elements for the General Purpose Standard

Research and Development:See the list of EDI GENRAL segments and elements in below data grid. The Jobisez.com site has an online translation tool that converts the EDI GENRAL (General Purpose) document into a CSV file. If you are researching the GENRALs, you can view other trading partner's mapping specifications. You can also gain knowledge by researching all EDI document types. Jobisez LLC can also provide assistance if you need additional help.

Solutions:Are you looking to trade the EDI GENRAL transaction with one of your trading partners? Do you need an EDI VAN Savings solution to exchange the GENRAL? Or perhaps you would like to use a Cloud-Based application, so you can plug your GENRAL transaction directly into your ERP and TMS systems. Even small companies have the ability to trade the EDI GENRAL by using the EDI Mobile Device solution.
